Oh man, oh man. Thank you, THANK YOU to NetGalley and the Publisher for allowing me a chance at reading this before publication.
Okay. CDrama fans who read this - Till the End of the Moon meets Back to the Brink, right? Because I was FEELIN' those vibes. Heavily.
This picks up right where we left off. Our lovers separated due to their choices of the gods they became bound to. Both on different paths to end the conflict or the upcoming doom that is to take place.
I'm a little sad this was a duology because I feel there is more here that can be expanded upon - world building, characters, conflict. I mean, the saddest bit was having build the villain up in book one to find him non existent in this book. I would have liked more conflict thrown their way in terms of him or his minions.
However, the book ended beautifully and the way that the book SHOULD end. Though if you had seen Till the End of the Moon (and listened to the bonus audio), well, you know that's the ending I wanted for them. BUT STILL, it was good, and I loved this duology and I'm ready for any other cdrama-esque stories the author is gonna write.

"Okay... Zhou Ye or Bai Lu as Lan... and Neo Hou as Zen? Possible? Yes. I could cast this and love every bit of it with all my new cdrama actor knowledge. ❤️"
